Art galleries practice non only please civilization vultures, sometimes... they tin live on corking places to satisfy the needs of gluttons too. Opened inward early on 2016, Arte is dwelling household to 1 of Penang's corking fine art collections. Daiichi Art Space is the administration companionship behind the paintings too artwork, a branch of Daiichi Modern Art Gallery (Sungai Petani), 1 of the largest someone fine art museums too galleries inward Malaysia. Combine a catch to the fine art gallery too a catch to Arte Restaurant, which offers French amongst Asian-inspired menu. The eating seat is calming, elegant too well-decorated inward shades of white too grey; amongst hand-crafted paintings adorning the walls (the paintings are for sale too). Chef Jay's nutrient is something to yell about, a sublime blend of French too Asian cooking techniques to nowadays the ingredients' vibrant pure flavors.
Many cheers to Arte Restaurant for hosting us that afternoon.
Pumpkin Soup (Rm 15)
Tomato Soup (Rm 15)
Soup presented amongst an artistic touch, it actually equally delectable equally it looks too smells. The rich yet gently flavored Pumpkin Soup consisted of waves of surprises, accept a quaff too you lot volition live on welcomed past times a creamy, milky texture followed past times a mellow Pumpkin flavor too sweetness. It was non mono-dimensional, bits of Bacon were introduced for the extra chewy, savory touch.
It may seem slow to imagine how the Tomato Soup would sense of savor similar but 1 would live on surprised past times the robust flavors. The existent joy of eating the dish would live on to swallow together amongst the crunchy greens presented aside- Sundried Tomatoes, fresh Tomatoes amongst singed edges too Zucchini Blossoms. Different combination of Tomato Soup too the sides could practice dissimilar flavors too dimensions. It was similar experimenting the wonders of the palate. Our favorite selection was the singed Tomatoes amongst burned edges which imparted a hint of smokiness to the sweet, acidic too slightly saltish Tomato Soup.
Caesar Salad (Rm 19)
Spring Salad (Rm 18)
Whet upwards the appetite amongst Chef Jay's Caesar Salad, well-tossed too amped amongst crispy bits of savory Parmesan Lace too Bacon equally good equally gooey half-boiled Egg. The dimension was clear too seasonings were concise too spot on, goose egg to a greater extent than too goose egg less. The greens were crisp too fresh. While the Spring Salad does alive upwards to our expectation (all greens were sufficiently-dressed amongst their home-made refreshing tangy too zingy citrus dressing), nosotros idea it was to a greater extent than of a standard-average starter. We were in all probability overwhelmed past times the Caesar Salad.
Duck Confit (Rm 48)
Angus Beef Rib Eye (Rm 135/ 250 grams) served amongst Blue Cheese Sauce
We were pleasantly surprised to uncovering such a beautiful slab of Rib Eye. Little touches are keys to unlock excitements. It's non mutual for restaurants to serve Steak amongst Bone Marrow but Arte Restaurant was too hence serious near their Rib Eye that they took it to the adjacent level. Be surprised past times the complexity too pleasance that the dish could potentially deliver. The meat was expertly cooked amongst edges beautifully seared, wonderfully gamey too rich. It was most tender too juicy to the bite, perfectly paired amongst melt-in-the-mouth Bone Marrow (just similar creamy Butter) too exquisite Blue Cheese Sauce. The Black Garlic highlighted the alluring beefy aroma spell the flecks of Peppercorn refreshed the palate amongst a hint of peppery-sensation. We had no qualms feasting on that gigantuan slab of Rib Eye. One of the best Rib Eyes nosotros stimulate got always had.
Poultry lovers could opt for their Duck Confit, carefully rendered for hours too served amongst Plum Sauce, Purple Sweet Potato Puree too sauteed Red Cabbage; the peel of the Duck Thigh was perfectly crisp amongst flaky flesh. Our exclusively drawback was the Plum sauce, which nosotros idea the flavors were rather muted.
Passion Fruit Panna Cotta (Rm 25)
Tiramisu (Rm 25)
If you lot notwithstanding managed to move along your pants buttoned at this stage, larn for their Passion Fruit Panna Cotta. The chilled gelatin-dessert served amongst Passion Fruit was delicious; the Panna Cotta was creamy too delicately sweetened but farther enlivened amongst the refreshing tropical fruit- Passion Fruit. The unappealing Red Wine Pear was non to live on forsaken equally well, the Pear was nicely poached but retaining the quintessential juicy yet theatre bite. It is worth to banking venture annotation that all desserts inward Arte Restaurant are alcohol-free... to cater for immature diners.
